Matrix user forums

Update.
It looks like the the browser extensions was a red herrin as I descovered the browsers are treating the FC7 and FC8 files as insecure.
I have sent an email to Matrix IT and the issue has now been fixed.
Thank you IT for the quick fix.
Chrome will now let me download the files with no issues.

Downloads for v7 and v8 are not working for me.
Only v6 is working.
Edit: I have add blocker extensions in Chrome and Opera which are the browsers that don't work.
Tried with Edge as that has not got add blockers and it allowed me to download v7

Hi DBMGTIL.
Two things to try.
Within Pot properties, Change Vref option to AVCC
See if that works first.
If that does not work what happens when you set PWM with a value of 127?

Hi George.
I can help you with that.
If you want to try yourself first, then the biggest difference is C code as different compilers were used.
This might help?
If you are still stuck then if you post or PM the the Flowchart, then I will convert it for you.

Hi, Rod
Glad you have got it working.
Thanks for letting us know.

You will need to make sure the Flowcode Clock setting match the value of the crystal on your board. If crystal is running at 8MHz ,then you need to change the clock from 19660800 to 8000000. Both configuration settings of Mikroe and Flowcode should be the same. The image does not show the crystal fo...

That instantly tells me the configuration of your flowchart does not match your hardware settings. I have looked at a circuit for Easypic Pro and it has a crystal of 16MHz. That means you run the microcontroller at either 16 (With PLL disabled) or 64MHz (With PLL enabled). When I looked at your flow...

Looking at the image of the analyser the UART is way too slow.
Can you do two things.
1. Run the 1 sec flasher measure the pin on/ off duration. what is the value?
2. I can't see the single UART pulse duration from the image, what is the value?

How often does the crashing occur?

Hi Rod.
A tip I always use to determine the UART baud rate.
Send an ASCII U it must be upper case.
measure any single pulse width.
Baud = 1/singe pulse duration.
Can you let me know the result, please?

Hi, Rod. You are showing me the simulation, did you time the on /off times on your easypic pro? I have a 18F46K22 so it's from the same family and that is echoing perfectly: Echo Port.png For the version I posted, you will need to add a calculation macro: Calculation Box.png Are you running at least...

Yes, that suggests that Mikroe is controlling everything at the correct speed. Flowcode may not, e.g. could be a configuration issue so the clock speed is wrong. Or clock speed is correct and UART might be working at the wrong baud rate. That's why I have asked about the one sec flash test and if yo...

Seems like hardware or UART might not be running at the correct speed?
Do you have a logic analyser or an oscilloscope?
If not have you made sure the one second flasher is running at the correct rate?

Hi Rod.
Does this work any better?

but when i do the reverse, the action serve the joining and getting the LONG number but not the same number which i split and also negative (-) sign is added. Just thought I would mention that Ben's post was in 2012 and the OP was asking about Flowcode V5 That did not use the compiler that is used ...

Excellent, I'm glad the issue is resolved for you. Conversions can be hit and miss especially with Longs/Ulongs For that reason, Ben created an excellent component to help with that. Within Flowcode search for conv/At the top of the list will be Type conversions. There is a really good example flowc...

Hi Abhi, The attached flowchart works for me. It converts ulong to bytes. saves the bytes within EEPROM. Clears the byte variables then retrieves the bytes from EEPROM. Converts retrieved bytes back to EEPROM, then displays the converted value. If the two values on the display matched then you know ...

The are several suggestions from myself and Ben.
Which option are you referring to?

Hi, RABO2320.
There are several things you can do.
1. Have conversion speed within POT properties set n the max e.g FOSC/128
2. Use GetAverageByte or Use GetAverageInt macro.
3. Use a suitable capacitor across ADC and GND
4. Make sure Supply voltage is stable.

Hi, Fer_taca. A few comments. The version I have of Flowcode is: 8.0.0.6 That version is well out of date. You should be on version 8.2.2.15 Can you go to here Close all instances of Flowcode, download patch and hotfix then run them in that order. After you have done that, reopen your flowchart and ...

Hi Bruno.
Thank you for creating the Map component.
My suggestion would be to use a single Long for the calculations as just using ints will cause rollover to occur.
See here.
Credit to our VC member mnf for spotting the issue with the v9 version.

The component is now available within v9.
You might have to change Files in-use to Full database.
I have not got a BMP180 to test it with.
If you could try it out and let us know how you get on, will appreciate the feedback.

I will create a BMP180 Component for v9.
I will also inform you when it's on the v9 update system.
Edit: Component has been created & hopefully will be available sometime on Thursday 30 Sep.

Hi Abhi.
I have made a small adjustment so it should work from 0 to 32767.
On the higher values the count is out slightly
I'm not that great with maths so I used Jan's example and changed it slightly.

Hi Abhi.
I have just put a moving average demo together for you.
Its only going fairly slow because its a demo
You can remove LCD macros and delay from MovingAverage User Macro.

Hi, mola.ae
Flowcode v9 has BMP280 and BME280
a BMP180 can be created for v9 as well.
Have you thought of giving it try?
You could use the free 30day trial with everything unlocked, and see how you get on?
